One medium carrot (about 61 g) provides roughly 25 calories and 2 g of fiber, per USDA FoodData Central, plus a large dose of vitamin A (beta-carotene). Carrots are a low-calorie, crunchy snack that pairs well with hummus or yogurt dip. Cooking slightly softens them but keeps nutrients. They’re a smart swap for higher-calorie crunchy snacks like chips.

Key facts:

  • 1 medium carrot: ~25 kcal
  • Fiber: ~2 g
